Does Desiccation Cause Extra Damage?

[(PSN)SolarSpade]

Does Inaros's desiccation cause non-finisher melee attacks to deal extra damage or become critical hits on affected enemies? I notice that whenever I hit an enemy from the front that is affected by desiccation, the attack results in a yellow number that deals more damage than my normal attack but much less than a finisher. This allows me to spam melee attacks to kill powerful enemies that are not affected by finishers pretty quickly. I'm not sure if this is an affect of the blind status effect or if I just don't fully understand the mechanics of finishers but does anyone have an answer for this?

deicration is more like an ability to reroll for an item drop. it drains your energy whenever you run across an enemy to get extra items from it. it's a handy ability for farming. ^w^

• Dessication provides an easy way for Inaros to deal melee finishers, allowing him to quickly regenerate his health when performed on a crowd.
• ^This is from Wiki. I guess if it states "quickly regenerate...on a crowd" then yes, normal attacks will be multiplied like finisher damage. Because it wouldn't be "quickly on a crowd" to perform finisher animation each time on each enemy XD

Yea I have both Atlas and Nekro and also get their skill mix up - Desiccation vs. Desecrate. My trick is start with a D and the longer name belongs to Atlas .😁

Desiccation is not an Atlas ability, either 😛

Abilities that "blind" enemies generally cause Melee hits to receive stealth damage multipliers (x8 on a Rank 30 weapon).

[taiiat]

tl;dr it's a Blind Ability, which means Enemies can be susceptible to Stealth Attacks which deal increased Damage and appear as yellow numbers even if not Critting.
